Sean and Beverly are shocked when they arrive in California to discover that their erudite, stage veteran star has been replaced by the network with Matt LeBlanc.

Sean and Beverly attend a swanky dinner party at Merc's house where Sean falls prey to Matt's flattery and attention, while Beverly resists the star's charms and discovers that having Matt LeBlanc as an enemy is a bad idea.

Sean and Matt spend a day bonding together with a trip to Las Vegas, leaving Beverly feeling left out of her husband's new "bromance" and leading to a revealing confrontation between her and the star.

Forced to rescue a drunken Matt from a seedy dive bar so that he won't drive drunk, Sean and Beverly take him to his ex-wife's house, where he visits his children, confronts the mess he's made of his life, and finds Beverly's attitude toward him softening.

Matt invites both Sean and Morning, an actress with whom Sean has long been infatuated, to a charity event where Sean discovers the attraction is mutual; Beverly and Carol share a joint and commiserate about the men in their lives.

When Beverly finds evidence that Sean feels attracted to Morning, she leaves their house, but causes a car crash.

Beverly regrets leaving Sean. After coming back, Sean and Beverly wrap their show and get ready to go back to London.
